In recent years, the National Capital Region (NCR) of Delhi has experienced several earthquakes ranging in magnitude from 1.0 to 6.7. According last 50 years earthquake data, majority NCR have occurred near Mahendragarh Dehradun Fault (MDF) and Sohna (SF). The region is bounded by a number subsurface Ridges, Faults, Lineaments, which are also influenced active plate boundary Indian Eurasian pla...

Apollo-Soyuz photographs of the Monte Desert in southeastern San Juan, Argentina, were used for a reconnaissance survey of large-scale desert landforms. The Apollo-Soyuz color photographs were helpful in distinguishing lineaments and probable faults, drainage patterns, rock types, and soil-tonal variations. These photographs were especially useful in studying the distribution of sand deposits a...

BACKGROUND Many young women experiment with using indoor tanning beds with some becoming regular users. There is a dearth of research focused on factors related to the development of regular tanning. This study was designed to gain an in-depth understanding of the experiences of a regular indoor tanning bed user for the purpose of discovering working hypotheses related to the development of thi...

Abstract This study aims to analyze the lineaments using field data and a remote sensing approach, describe their relationship with folds, faults, regional tectonic stress of central Sulaiman Fold-Thrust Belt. Joint data, from nine anticlines, has been collected scanline method classified into three sets (JS1, JS2, JS3) based on geometrical relationships. Lineaments extracted 30 m digital eleva...

Utilization of the digital Landsat TM bands for automatic lineaments extraction and selection of the optimum bands are the main objects of this article. The classical method for lineament extraction was manually performed through aerial photographs and satellite imagery. Nowadays several commercial softwares are developed to deal with the automatic linear features extraction using the optical a...

Abstract Remote sensing (RS) applications have become an important tool for the rapid evaluation of water resources. This paper deals with the utilization of RS data as the main input in an integrated approach for groundwater targeting. The Mulug Taluk, with an areal extent of 3200 km, is one of the poor taluks in the Warangal District, Andhra Pradesh, India. A hydrogeomorphological study based...

A new three-dimensional (3D) inversion strategy is applied to compilations of gravity and magnetic data reassess the role crustal lineaments in development western Laurentian margin, Selwyn Basin, associated sediment-hosted zinc–lead (Zn–Pb) deposits. The region’s history obscured by multiple tectonic overprints, including terrane accretion, plutonism, thrust faulting. Regionally continuous, br...
